Some of my tracks have been used for a theatre production: a scary version of the Snow White tale.
Further information (in German): http://www.diekoralle.de/spielplan-karten/2013-04-04-09-48-35/2013-04-04-09-49-38/schneewittchen-fuer-erwachsene-1

This is a track that I began a few years ago (http://soundcloud.com/pusteblumi/bad-dream) and finished now. In that particular scene, Snow White is running through the forest and will find herself surrounded by Zombies.

Escape Through The Forest ("Bad Dream" continued)

Snow White on stage...
The seven dwarves introduce themselves with a song

This is a demo recording. Only the instrumental track was used, the vocals were performed live on stage.

Zwergenlied (Dwarf Song)

An "endless" melody for music box in a somewhat creepy scene...

Merry Christmas everyone!

P.S.: Sorry for the vocals, I know that I cannot sing... especially while I'm still recovering from a bad cold. If you are a singer and can do the job better, please go ahead, I'll provide you with the backing track :-)

Christmas is For.......

Christmas is for children when the year does end.
But when I see my Christmas tree
I feel like a child again.
Christmas is for boys and girls with their eyes aglow.
But when I see my Christmas tree
there is one thing that I know.
Christmas is for everyone when they see their tree.
So let the spirit of Christmas fill your heart
and never let it be only for the children
and not for you and me.

Christmas snow is falling. Flakes are in the air.
We’re wrapping gifts and writing cards
to people everywhere.
Christmas cookies baking, eggnog’s in the bowl
Christmas is for everyone, whether young or old.
So, Merry Christmas everyone.
Light your Christmas tree and when you see it shining
be a child again, like me.

3 Christmas Songs:
- Wir sagen euch an den lieben Advent
- Inmitten der Nacht
- Kommet ihr Hirten

All orchestra instruments are from Vienna Special Edition.
Uilleann Pipes are from Kontakt Factory Selection, doubled with a little bit of SonicCouture Bowed Piano.

Advent

Arrangement for school orchestra (mockup)

Gloria

An old track I recorded in 2003 without virtual instruments. Strings and synth are SY77, alto and soprano sax, cello and bass guitar are "real" instruments.

Choral

...created with solo trumpet and trombone from Vienna Special Edition.

Choir I: 1 trumpet + 3 trombones
Choir II: 4 trombones

Third version: Mix with more and longer reverb

Giovanni Gabrieli (1557-1612): Sonata pian' e forte (3rd version: Cathedral mix)

The first version of this piece was my first attempt EVER to create an orchestral piece on the PC. That was in 2008 when I had no usable library at all, only relying on some freeware samples. I'm sure you won't wanna hear that! =)
Since then, I once started to re-do it with VSL, but never finished it.

This year, my daughter asked me to finish the piece for her 10th birthday... okay, here you are. 

Happy Birthday, Jenny! :)

Jennifer's Fairy Tale (Ride of the Toy Knights)

About a month ago, Alexandre Gérard uploaded this great guitar track:
http://soundcloud.com/alexandre-gerard/johann-sebastian-bach
I could not resist to take the score of Bach's St. John Passion and play the rest of the parts...

No virtual instruments this time... maybe I should spend less time in front of my PC and start practising again ;-)

Johann Sebastian Bach: Betrachte, meine Seel BWV 245 (collab. with Alexandre Gérard)

(Former) SoundCloud Junkie

Hmm... what could be interesting about me?

I'm a teacher for Maths and Music.
My instruments are cello, piano, clarinet and saxophone... and a PC with Samplitude, VSL SE, Kontakt, Independence Pro and a few other libraries.

I'm happy if someone else likes my stuff... ;-)

I HATE the new SoundCloud design!!!

Dear people at SoundCloud management, 
please stop that horrible mess called "next SoundCloud". The classic layout and functionality was just perfect, whereas the new one does not at all fill anyone's needs. You will lose lots of (formally) satisfied users and paying customers. (Right now, I can no more imagine to choose to upgrade to a paid account.)
If you like, create as many different apps for mobile devices as you like, but PLEASE don't touch your website's layout we all have been loving for centuries...
